9778UMZ Zinc Heavy Duty Bypass Filter Unit

The 9778UMZ Zinc Heavy Duty Engine Bypass Filter is smallest FA-ST Zinc Engine Bypass Filters: H16.5cm x D14.61cm The unit is ideal for engines working in hazardous environments with a sump of up to 50 litres and will remove 0.87 litres of water per filter cartridge as well as 1.2Kg of particulate contaminate.

The 9778UMZ housing is for use with general engines, heavy industry, and diesel fuel. Suitable for all types of engine oils and can also be used on diesel fuel and light hydraulic oil up to 46 viscosities

• Flow Rate: Output levels are dependent on the viscosity, temperature, and degree of contamination and oil pressure. (Guide for SAE 15W40 oil at 158 degrees F and 60psi, the flow rate would be approx 4 to 7 litres per minute)
• Operating Temperatures: Within operating specifications of engine, gear, and hydraulic oils.
• Operating Pressures: Maximum rating of 10 bar. Lid torque is 23 lbs/foot

Replacement Filter Cartridge for 9778UMZ

1878 filter cartridges: with dirt retention capacity of approx. max 1.2Kg solid particles and approx max 870 ml water. These cartridges come supplied as single filters or boxed quantity of 12. All boxes and individual cartridges contain spare lid seals for filter housings. Cartridges filter fineness of 1μm nom, 3μm absolute. Temperature operating range 0-135°C, +/- 5°C. The stated volumes of oil are only relative to installation of single filter housing. All cartridges are protected by a nylon outer cover with pressed brass ring holder.

On installation the BRASS RINGS MUST BE FACING UPWARDS

Filtration Level: Particulate contamination in accordance with BS 5540 part 4: 1981 and ISO/DIS 4406. ISO 14/9 equivalent to NAS 1638 class 6 - hydraulic oil specification.

Zinc Filter Housings

FA-ST also offer a selection of Heavy-Duty Zinc engine bypass filter housings, specifically designed for hazardous applications where anti-sparking, strength and durability are required. These units are manufactured in Zinc to comply with the statutory regulations for hazardous areas and underground mining operations. All units are subject to individual pressure testing and strict quality control, they are powder coated white and supplied fitted with a cartridge, mounting bracket & nut/bolt set.

• Anti-Sparking.

Zinc is non sparking and suitable for hazardous location applications such as coal mines, gold mines, tankers, and refineries.

• Strength & Ductility.

Zinc offers high strengths (to 50,000psi) and superior elongation for strong designs and formability for bending, crimping and riveting operations. Few materials provide the toughness of Zinc, impact resistance is significantly higher than cast aluminium, plastic, and grey cast iron.

• Rigidity.

Zinc has the rigidity of metals with modules of elasticity characteristics equivalent to other die‐castable materials. Stiffness properties are, therefore, far superior to engineering plastics.

• Thin Wall Castability.

High casting fluidity allows for thinner wall sections to be cast therefore reducing the overall weight and allowing good heat dissipation.
